MOUNTING METHODS

There are three methods that can be used to mount the i-ALERT2 device to a machine. They are shown in the figure below.
On new pumps and pumps repaired through ITT PRO Services, a slot will be milled into an appropriate location on the
bearing housing and the device will be secured with a screw. Alternatively, a hole can be drilled and tapped and a small
adapter plate can then be used to secure the device. Lastly, the device can be epoxied directly the machine via the
mounting plate. Make sure to use a good quality, rigid epoxy. Do not use RTV or Silicon to mount the device.
